In his address, Azhar Hajini highlighted the importance of an inclusive society where people with special needs are loved, respected and helped.
“Don’t assume that people with disabilities would always require some assistance in leading their lives and the first step is to treat them as equals. Understand that they know more about their needs and how to handle their day-today lives. In case, if you want to extend any support, ask first. Understand their needs and learn about specific details on how you can assist,” he added.
Additional Commissioner Kashmir in his speech lavished his praise on the parents of such children who sacrifice their everything to raise their kids in the best possible manner.
